A draft map arranged by the Derby Committee shows which waters would be open to sport fishermen during this year's annual salmon derby. The hashed-out waters to the north make up District 8. Traditional derby boundaries south of Etolin Island and beyond Zarembo Island would still apply, but most waters in District 7 would remain open to participants. An exception would be in the Back Channel to Wrangell's east, which could see a partial closure extended to the Channel Island area.
